Dear all,

I have installed a TCS 1550 DCC decoder for AZL in my GP40-2 (kitbashed from a AZL GP38-2).
I have added a small LED in the short hood and set CV51 to auto mars 13. The forward head light CV49 is set to rule 17 dimmable light 8.

It's little details like this that really make the model. Now a challenge is to add a backup/tail light to the mix like:

I've got the LED, I just haven't figured out how to reverse polarity on a DCC decoder. Of course there's still classification lights and running lights.
